Notes:

This recipe serves 1.

You can replace the cherries with some blueberries or blackcurrants if you really can’t get a hold of cherries! We did that and it still looks and tastes amazing… You could also replace the maraschino cherries with regular fresh ones if you desire. Even blackberries or mulberries should look nice instead of the cherries.

Tip: The way you choose to decorate your drink it’s up to you, but we love the way it’s pictured here.
